Cobia Targeting Tips

  • Cobia are often found near structures like reefs, wrecks, buoys, and navigation markers. They also follow large rays and sharks, looking for easy meals.
  • Live bait such as crabs, eels, and mullet are effective for catching cobia. They also respond well to artificial lures like jigs and swimbaits.
Cobia (Rachycentron canadum) is a popular game fish found in warm-temperate to tropical waters worldwide. It is known for its strong fighting ability and is highly sought after by anglers. Appearance: Cobia have a streamlined, torpedo-shaped body with a broad, flattened head. They are generally dark brown to gray on the back, with a white belly. There are two distinct dark stripes on the sides, and the fish has a dark stripe from the eye to the mouth. Size: Cobia can grow up to 6 feet (1.8 meters) in length and weigh over 100 pounds (45 kg), though most caught by anglers are much smaller. Habitat: Cobia are found in both inshore and offshore waters, typically near structures like reefs, wrecks, and buoys. They are known to migrate long distances and are often found in the company of other fish species, such as sharks and rays. Diet: Cobia are opportunistic feeders that eat a variety of prey, including small fish, crabs, and squid. Reproduction: Cobia spawn in warm waters from spring to fall. Females release eggs into the open water, where they are fertilized by males. The eggs hatch in about 24 to 36 hours. Behavior: Cobia are known for their strong fighting ability and are often caught using live bait, lures, or flies. They are also popular with spearfishermen.
